Inside Halen Vera's office.

After hearing Locke's request, Halen Vera immediately smiled. He and Locke were now more like mutually achieving each other.

Under his help, Locke had burst forth with his true potential, and Halen Vera's relationship network had also gained tremendous benefits over the past year due to the projects Locke himself brought.

Now that Locke was proactively proposing to bring junior brothers and sisters into wizard secret realms, this was of course what Halen Vera was happy to see.

Halen Vera laughed and said, "Don't mention it, I actually do have several students I'd like you to bring into secret realms. Last time Zoina told me that thanks to you, Locke, otherwise her harvest in the secret realm would have been reduced by at least half."

"Oh right, Anglon, you could perhaps also enter the Tesla Wasteland secret realm with Locke."

Halen Vera spoke to Anglon beside him as if casually, "Anglon, doesn't that mental power enhancement potion project of yours require Tesla Discharge Flowers from Tesla Wasteland? I remember that's a rare magical plant that only exists in the Tesla Wasteland secret realm."

"It's quite difficult to obtain normally. If you join forces with Locke this time, with both of your abilities, you'll definitely be able to obtain Tesla Discharge Flowers."

Anglon's limbs stiffened. He glanced at Locke with jealousy and fear, gritted his teeth, and refused, "Teacher Halen, no need."

"I've been very busy recently and don't plan to go to Tesla Wasteland. I think Junior Locke wouldn't wait half a year for me before going to Tesla Wasteland either."

Anglon gritted his teeth and glanced at Locke as if provocatively.

Unfortunately, Locke ignored him.

Halen Vera frowned slightly, a flash of disappointment appearing in his eyes. He had originally intended to reconcile the conflict between Locke and Anglon, but unexpectedly, Anglon actually refused to his face.

Halen Vera's gaze toward Anglon became several degrees colder. "If that's the case, then I won't force you. Take care of yourself."

Anglon heard the extreme dissatisfaction with him in Halen Vera's tone, and his face became even paler.

Halen Vera looked at Kali Ackerman behind Anglon and spoke, "Kali, would you like to go to Tesla Wasteland together with Locke?"

Kali Ackerman's eyes immediately lit up. She could barely restrain herself and immediately said, "Yes, Teacher Halen, I'm willing to go to Tesla Wasteland together with Senior Locke."

Over this past year, Kali had been troubled about how to ease her relationship with Locke.

For someone like her who was an academic magic partner, what she feared most was offending someone like Locke who was an absolute star within their relationship network. At this moment, with Mentor Halen Vera proactively helping them ease their relationship, how could she dare refuse? Of course she agreed immediately.

Moreover, Kali also knew that previously when Zoina followed Locke to the secret realm, she received quite a lot of help. Naturally, Kali didn't want to miss this good opportunity either.

Kali bowed her head slightly to Locke, performed a courtesy, and said, "Senior, thank you so much. You've truly saved my life. I have a project that needs special resources from within the Tesla Wasteland secret realm, but relying solely on myself, it would be completely impossible to obtain them."

"With your help, everyone's lives have become much simpler."

Kali proactively handed Locke a box of Rain Flower Bamboo Leaf Fragrance Tea, "Senior Locke, this is wizard tea I carefully made myself. Consider it a token of my appreciation."

"Here, Senior Locke."

Locke frowned slightly, but for Halen Vera's sake, he still accepted this wizard tea.

After all, Kali Ackerman was already a junior sister from his own teacher's school. As long as he still mixed within this relationship network and enjoyed the benefits this relationship network brought him, he could at most only ignore her.

Unless she proactively did something outrageous.

Besides, previously she had only been verbally disrespectful to him. The two of them couldn't be said to have too much conflict.

After Locke accepted the wizard tea she personally made, Kali Ackerman was undoubtedly relieved. At the same time, a smile appeared on her face. From now on, she could perhaps be like other junior brothers and sisters, shamelessly follow behind Locke.

Anglon's face darkened. He directly said to Halen Vera, "Teacher, I need to go back to do experiments."

After saying this, he turned and left huffily.

Kali Ackerman was somewhat panicked, suddenly realizing that her attitude just now had offended Anglon again.

Kali looked left at Anglon, right at Locke, and for a moment stood in the middle of the office, somewhat unsure whom she should follow.

Halen Vera watched Anglon leave huffily, furrowed his brow, and sighed.

...

One week later, Locke brought his junior brothers and sisters and farmed three ordinary secret realms in succession. During this process, he himself obtained large amounts of new memory fragments.

Needless to say about Twilight Garden, Locke obtained another batch of First Circle magic fragments from the Transmutation School there.

As for Extreme Cold Iceland, it was a naturally independent small magic island in the waters near Lilith's Cottage port. It was also considered part of Lilith's Cottage headquarters, so Locke could enter without worrying about being ambushed by formal wizards from the black wizard side.

In that magic island, there was also the echo of an ice element formal wizard, so one could obtain memory fragments by hunting the ice elements on the island. Locke fully displayed his strength and obtained large amounts of memory fragments there.

At the same time, Locke also obtained a high-grade magical plant seed of that secret realm's rare specialty magical plant, the Six-Faceted Prism Watchtower Ice Tree.

That was a rare magical plant seed that suddenly dropped after he hunted large numbers of ice elemental life forms.

Locke estimated that Albert and the others probably obtained First Circle magical plant juveniles through similar means, farmed from secret realms through luck and strength.

In Tesla Wasteland, this was a natural magic concentration area near Lilith's Cottage headquarters, filled with space-time rifts that could summon interdimensional magic beasts at any time.

On this wasteland, there was also an echo that had been transformed and solidified after the death of a First Circle wizard of Evocation School thunder magic. Countless thunder elemental life forms wandered here.

At this moment, in this wasteland, Locke, Kali, and another first-class wizard apprentice in his forties were hunting thunder elemental life forms on the wasteland.

Locke's goal was to lead his two junior brothers and sisters to hunt a thunder elemental lord, the most powerful existence in this secret realm, the existence closest to a First Circle life form.

On the wasteland, thunder clouds covered everything. Thunderstorms continuously fell. Ball lightning orbs surrounded and protected the thunder elemental lord under its magic.

Kali Ackerman used plant magic root entanglement, using the mid-to-high-grade magical plant Guardian Tree. She plunged the Guardian Tree's roots into the soil and, from over two hundred meters away, entangled them around the thunder elemental lord's body.

Kali shouted joyfully to Locke, "Senior, I've restrained it."

"Senior, quickly take the opportunity to kill it!"

The other first-class wizard apprentice continuously used plant magic to resist the Summon Thunder spell that the thunder elemental lord casually shot in Kali's direction.

If an apprentice-level wizard was hit even once by Summon Thunder, they would definitely die on the spot. That was First Circle magic, only lacking much magical energy due to the passage of time.
